Greetings.

I was browsing the net looking for mech images to get ideas for a model, i came across a few well designed mechs that i liked, however, i couldnt decide on what one to model, so i thought i would redesign all of them into one mech, i got my ideas for this model from the game RF Online, and the rest from the Gundam Series.







I'd like your thoughts on the model and ideas on what i should add as im not totally done with it at the moment.

Sorry the images arent the best but i didnt have time to render them in good positions, please if you want other images, just let me know and i will get them uploaded asap.

thanks for your time

Glode.

I quite like it so far. I think the head should be changed a bit, though. As of now, it looks a little silly to me, it's basically just a block(-ish) shape with a sensor attached to it. Perhaps it might look better if it was rounder, more helmet-shaped (like Gundam mechs). I also think the legs could do with a bit of a rounder appearance, especially around the hips, but their overall shape is very nice.

Keep it up! :yes:

wip = work in progress.

Nice work Glode :)
My only suggestion lies with the torso; it looks a little plain, kinda like a barrel. Maybe add some kind of armor, or differentation between the top and bottom of the torso.
Wish I could provide a more creative suggestion but I'm not really a mecha modeller ^^;;

I agree Shiyojin Rommyu make the head more roundish. I have no further comments on that bad boy ^_^

Greetings.

Thank you so much for the comments, I've taken the time this morning to work on the torso, currently I'm working on about 3 different types of torso to work out a better idea on which way i want to go with it.

Here is a small render of the torso based on the RF Online MAU:



Ive only changed the layout and design slightly, when im more happy with the design i will add detail to it.

i will post more renders of the other torso's later today if i have the time.

Big thanks about the head comment, I think i will try the idea of making an Gundam type of head, I hope I can create one that will be able to blend in with the model and fit in with the ranged mech design I'm going for.

Thanks for your time.

Looks pretty cool. :)

For the head why not go for a more Ranger X type? I think it would look pretty good. (Please excuse the crappy pic quality but my scanner isn't hooked up right now so I had to use my phone).


Uhh....that sticker has been on there for over a decade now....
